Dwayne Johnson Surprises Mom With New Home: ‘Thank You God for Blessing Me’
By Movieguide® Contributor
Dwayne Johnson recently celebrated a huge purchase: buying a home for his mother.
“Love you mom and surprise!” Johnson captioned a video of his mom seeing her new house.
He continued:
When I was a little boy, I hated when my mom would cry ~ these days, I’ll happily take her tears of joy
I surprised my mom and bought her a new home. Took me and my design team 8 weeks to get it ready, where she could walk thru her front door for the very first time and everything she saw was brand new and a total surprise.
I’ve been lucky enough to have bought her a few homes over the years, but this one is special as she’s told me over and over these past few years, “After a lifetime of traveling, I want this home to be my last. Thats my dream.”
Mom, there’s no greater feeling than to make you happy ~ welcome home
I always say, if you got a good mom then you got a shot at becoming a good, caring human being.
Let’s all give our mamas a big grateful squeeze this weekend and make ‘em happy.

Johnson posted more videos that showed his mom seeing special rooms the actor had designed for her memorabilia that celebrated their family’s WWE, football, and movie accolades.
The actor strives to put family first and frequently makes large charitable donations.
Movieguide® previously reported on one of his donations:
The halls of 20 children’s hospitals will be a little more merry this Christmas season thanks to a generous donation partnership from Dwayne Johnson, Microsoft, Bill Gates, and Xbox.
“20 years ago my buddy Bill Gates and I debuted the very first ever @Xbox console to the world,” Johnson said in an announcement. “Now two decades later, I’m partnering up with @Microsoft once again to launch their brand new XBOX Series X to the world.
“BUT the best part about this partnership is I have the absolute privilege to deliver ONE OF A KIND ‘ROCK XBOX Series X’ consoles to 20 different children’s hospitals that will eventually reach over 50,000 KIDS!!!!” the wrestler-turned-actor said.
“These kids are battling through their illnesses with incredible bravery and I’m thrilled @microsoft, @gamersoutreach and myself can provide some joy and smiles,” Johnson said. “You kids show me and the world, what real strength means.”
The systems will be distributed over the course of the next year at hospitals around the United States.
“We are thrilled to partner with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson to bring next generation console gaming to children’s hospitals across the country and appreciate his consistent commitment to bringing joy to kids’ lives through the power of play with Xbox,” Xbox said in a release.
